GRAVITY AND MAGNETISM Is THERE A GEOMETRIC RELATIONSHIP? that you can try (see below), which reveals an effect contrary to established scientific belief. The experiment is based on Tom's own proprietary working prototype. along with some other people, observed what he now believes to be a UFO. His fascination with the craft's strange move- ments led him to research gyroscopes, cir- cular motion, gravity and anti-gravity. His work has uncovered intriguing evi- dence which suggests that a resonant rela- tionship exists between atomic structure, electricity, solar winds, the Earth's magnet- ic fields, rotation, and gravity itself. Tom believes that a unique combination of gyroscopic forces can exhibit a measur- able anti-gravity effect. His several years of research point to a finely-tuned relation- ship between a gyroscope's speed, the Earth's spin, magnetic fields and gravity. Defining the resonance of these interlock- ing systems could eventually make full lift- off achievable, he contends. This paper describes a simple experiment Documentation of Test Results On 15 February 1993, Hawker DeHavilland of Melbourne tested one of Tom's early devices that delivered 5.7 pounds of lift, even with a troublesome DC-motor mounting. The motor mounting was accidentally broken while being trans- ported from the car to the test site. They repaired the bracket and, after losing an hour, continued with the test—with only seven DC motors operating on full power. Hawker DeHavilland was disappointed but still tested the configuration and made the appropriate corrections. A surprising surge of weight-loss was initiated when the The Research of Thomas Watson Retired draughtsman Tom Watson, who lives in Geelong in Victoria, Australia, has developed an interesting theory that adds some lift to the traditionally heavy topic of gravity. There is a growing interest in anti-gravi- ty: surely there has to be a more elegant way to escape the Earth than by using rock- ets! What is gravity? The existence of UFOs stimulates many theories. Tom Watson served in the RAAF for 12 years as a sergeant draughtsman. In 1981, while visiting Ballarat, Victoria, Tom, Figure 1: THRUST (a) L A Simpte ExPERIMENT The device schematic is shown in Figure 1. Rod (A) attaches to a free- spinning wheel (B) and the assembly (AB) attaches to a fixed point (C), free to pivot the assembly in any direction, ie., a ball joint. The entire assembly is placed on a scale to measure its weight. In the southern hemisphere, when the wheel (B) is spun in a clockwise direc- tion, the assembly (AB) is pushed in the direction of T:. The reaction of the spin- ning-wheel assembly is to rise, thus defying the gravitational force (R4). Why? According to conventional gyroscopic law, this result should not occur. The law states that the wheel reacts to the rotational force of the Earth. Gyroscopic law is further compromised when we reverse this procedure. The result is a significant, opposite, down- ward force. This difference is substan- tially greater than the upward force (R3). The scale will verify these obser- vations. Tom Watson theorises that this reaction results from the electron activi- ty of the rotating wheel reacting with the overall magnetic field of the Earth.
